David had no chance against such an opponent.
Therefore, he will use his most powerful trump card right from the start.
"You only get one chance to succeed..."
He leaped nimbly backward, but even so, Hercules was far faster than him at such close range...
"Roar--!"
Hercules swung his massive axe at the ground, unleashing a terrifying force that split the earth with a single, massive slash, creating a deep, unfathomable chasm tens of meters long.
King David leaped to avoid it.
At the same time, he swung his shepherd's staff in a spiral to ward off Hercules' madness.
However, the very next second...
Crash! Crash! Crash! Crash!
Nine consecutive slashes came at David almost simultaneously, instantly blocking his escape routes in all directions.
"Well..."
"This is unbearable!"
“A monster like him, no wonder Asterius couldn’t win.”
"Even if he becomes a berserker, his body, honed through countless trials, can still instinctively employ combat techniques."
David, suspended in mid-air, felt as if the world had suddenly stopped.
"If I don't activate my Noble Phantasm soon, I might not survive the next attack."
King David made his judgment.
In that instant, his gaze met Hercules' terrifying eyes.
The calm king calculated the distance between himself and the berserker!
—Be prepared to throw stones!
The instant Hercules shifted his foot slightly, King David's finger moved!
It's now!
Catapults, ready!
Using basic attacks to counter ultimate skills is indeed somewhat embarrassing for King David, but there's nothing he can do about it.
In a sense, the only thing King David could use to harm Hercules was his Noble Phantasm, the Five Stones.
The prerequisite is that the state of "divine protection" must be maintained.
After all, he is currently just an ordinary Servant. To win, he needs to find a momentary opening!
It's now!
"This is the stone that killed the Titans... even a great hero..."
A green light sprang from David's right hand. Normally, he would throw four fake stones first before throwing the real ones.
But right now, he doesn't have that composure!
He used all his strength from the very beginning!
The clash of energies transforms an ordinary stone into a deadly curse!
boom! boom! boom! boom! boom!
The energy clash creates a vacuum zone, and Asterius's labyrinth is already on the verge of collapse. Outside, the Master is running, and according to calculations, he is almost near the Ark of the Covenant.
but!
The stone truly triumphed over the strike, shattering the great hero's skull in that instant!
The trajectory of the pebble mirrors the battlefield, where the simple, green-haired boy confronts the immense gap and shatters the head of the giant Goliath.
This time, however, the difference was that after the attack took effect, as the overflowing divine blood and madness restored his form as if time had reversed, Hercules once again burst out of the explosion, wielding a huge axe sword!
"So fast!"
David's pupils trembled. He had just landed and hadn't even regained his footing when Hercules launched another attack.
Stab it!
Blood spurted out!
It gushed forth like a spring.
Despite his desperate attempts to dodge the hero's strikes and managing to avoid vital areas, he was still cut in the side by the greatsword, leaving a deep, bone-revealing gash!
If it weren't for his divine nature as a savior ancestor...
I'm afraid even David won't be able to maintain his fighting strength.
"Longhua, turn around and create the Samadhi of Fire!"
A fiery dragon suddenly burst into flames and rose from the shattered labyrinth.
The sound of the flames burning was like heavenly music to David's ears!
"Kiyohime...Miss...you're such a...adorable monster..."
David, who had survived the ordeal, leaned against the floor.
Ribs shattered, flesh mangled, though restored by magic, it seemed to have suffered considerable damage.
"Don't just stand there, the Ark of the Covenant still needs you."
Kiyohime's transformation into a fire dragon allows her to boost her power to monstrous levels for a period of time, but this power is only fleeting.
"I know... even if I die, I can't die here."
I want to go and see Chaldea.
But there is no way.
David is a Heroic Spirit summoned by this Singularity, and he will be sent back to the Throne of Heroes once the Singularity disappears.
and...
He wanted the child to see his handsome side.
This is every father's wish.
David was becoming increasingly senile when Jedidiah was born.
Various conflicts have worn down the former young hero's spirit.
It also failed to set a good example for that child.
He wanted to say it, but he couldn't bring himself to say it...
I'm so sorry I couldn't be a good father.
Click!
The white marble of Greece shattered, the ceiling first became covered with spiderweb-like cracks, then turned into pieces of stone and fell down, countless white powder and fragments poured down with a whoosh, and the walls collapsed suddenly with a loud bang.
This is Daedalus's limit.
Everyone is fighting and battling.
The weak confront the strong, the powerless confront the mighty, and hope confront despair.
Memories from this journey shine like jewels, like days from a dream.
Human beings are full of shamelessness, absurdity, and arrogance... but it is precisely because of this that the resoluteness they show at this moment is so precious!
"The maze has collapsed!"
Euryale's heart tightened, and she blurted out in a panic, "Could it be Asterius...?"
"Alive."
Fujimaru Ritsuka felt the ground behind her tremble.
The Ark of the Covenant is already visible, but has Hercules caught up with it?
My breathing feels so heavy.
Her heart pounded wildly, and she overexerted herself by breathing to replenish her magic. Ignoring the pain and pressure emanating from her entire body, Fujimaru Ritsuka hugged Euryale tightly once more.
boom!
"Master!"
Kiyohime, transformed into a fire dragon, could not contain Hercules.
With a sudden leap, the enormous body made Fujimaru Ritsuka feel as if she were seeing the Hulk.
Long! Long!
Like a cannonball, Hercules slammed into the ground behind Fujimaru Ritsuka, tearing up the grass and pulverizing the trees!
The ground lifted up, causing Fujimaru Ritsuka's body to leap into the air as well.
"how so!"
Dr. Roman asked anxiously, "David, Kiyohime, and Asterius are unable to fight, and Ritsuka is currently protecting Euryale. Who else can fight?"
Who else!
Who else is there?
"I'm coming, I'm ready."
The door to the control room opened.
A figure in black walked in.
The pale golden dragon eyes were ruthless and cold.
"As agreed, I will become the Master's sword."
Based on deduction, Fujimaru Ritsuka's current state can only maintain the "Imagination Manifestation" for about 30 seconds.
The Servants have done a very good job.
Fujimaru Ritsuka cannot, and does not want to, ask for more.
"I...with a Command Spell..."
"Order..."
"My flesh!"
Fujimaru Ritsuka leaped into the air, doing a forward somersault like a spiral, her back slamming against the wall with a cracking sound... Perhaps she was slightly dislocated, but she had no time to care about that at the moment!
Strengthen your beliefs.
Shooting down despair.
Success or failure depends on this!
"Imagination materializes, heroic spirits are summoned!"
It has the power to summon heroic spirits from the Chaldea realm without any worries, but it also has the ability to return to Chaldea when the imagined manifestation disappears.
This allows Fujimaru Ritsuka to abandon the immature and inconvenient combat method of using Spirit Origin Shadows and directly create Servants by hand to fight.
Under normal circumstances, Fujimaru Ritsuka would likely support Artoria Alter in defeating Hercules, but due to her poor condition, she can only maintain her illusionary manifestation for a very short time.
These 30 seconds are the time that Fujimaru Ritsuka can concentrate and persist in realizing her fantasy.
Hercules' enormous hand was inches away from Fujimaru Ritsuka!
In that instant, as if frozen in time, Hercules' roar and his figure blocking the way shattered the wall in front of Fujimaru Ritsuka.
As the walls crumbled, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Euryale fell into the makeshift Sanctuary.
There was still some blood on the axe blade of Hercules.
"Please, Artoria!!"
Command Seals shine.
Dreams come true!
